Edwin Denby (Secretary of the Navy) has published the reprimand to Admiral Sims, which reads: “The department deplores the fact that it was necessary to rebuke a flag officer publicly, but you have made such action unavoidable. The department expresses its strong and unqualified disapproval of your conduct in having again delivered a highly improper speech in a foreign country and you are hereby publicly reprimanded.” Admiral Sims has forwarded a written memorandum to Mr. Denby stating his London speech was inaccurately quoted.
